Showing Care/Sympathy

Sympathy expression is an expression or feeling of pity and  sorrow when we know and see people are unlucky, have trouble, or are in bad condition. For example, our friend is sad because his/her grandfather is sick. We can entertain him/her by showing sympathy.
By expressing sympathy, we want to show our concern or care for other people’s condition.
The purpose of expressing sympathy is to comfort people who have trouble or are in bad conditions. It is also aimed to let people know that we care for them. We can express sympathy directly to him/her orally by saying something supportive. In this way, we let our friend know that we know about his/her sadness and we let our friend know that we care and want to help him/her. If the person who is in trouble is far from us, we can send him/her a letter, ostcard, short message service (sms), or email to show our care/ sympathy.
